Okay, well, after having a great script ,thanks to our wonderfully talented scriptors, we need a storyboard. That's what we're going to do, and why we are here in this project.
First of all, for those who are still left in the dark, a storyboard is a planning process used by animators to plan out a movie. Much like a screenplay, a storyboard works in little frames that come together to form the entire movie. Instead of using words, the frames in a storyboard are pictures much like a flip-book that when played very fast make moving pictural scenes that tell a story, ect.
That's what we have to do. Basically, make a flip book for the movie. Now, for what should be used to create the storyboard is up to how many of us have photoshop, or any other means. As a tip, I would recommend sketching out the scene first before you drew it to be scanned and editted on photoshop, ect. Also, don't worry about being too detailed at first, this is just a planning process and not meant to be done at the first attempt. Sometimes, when you add too many details, the picture becomes 'cluttered' and it is hard for it to relate to the others. All there should really be is the outlines of anything within the frame, landscape and some shading to hint on depth.
This is where you can discuss about what we can do for the storyboard and share some styles. Don't worry, no two people (especially artists), are alike in style, but we can at least make sure we don't have a da vinci confronting a vango. So, go ahead and read the script (this is a MUST), then pick a random scene that you like and after editing it abit, submit it here for show and tell. Make sure though that you state, or quote from the script where and what your frame is about. Also, be sure to tell what format or tools you used. Then, we can start to put this puzzle together.
Good luck!
